We're told to follow the European countries like Sweden, Finland, Denmark and others to see how socialism and its universal healthcare and other free stuff can work in the United States.

Finland's government just collapsed due to the overwhelming costs of paying for everything especially universal healthcare.

"Nordic countries, where comprehensive welfare is the cornerstone of the social model, have been among the most affected," according to Reuters. "But reform has been controversial and, in Finland, plans to cut costs and boost efficiency have stalled for years."


Similar problems are bedeviling Sweden and Denmark, two other countries frequently held up as models to follow on health care. Finland's crisis in particular comes as calls for universal health care have grown louder among Democrats in the United States.
